The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

A man spends 50 years teaching at MIT.

He knows his time is running out.

So he records one last lecture — everything he knows, distilled into a single hour.

He died 5 months later.

This is that lecture.

The most important hour you'll watch this week. 👇

@aparanjape I guess..Just moving to central air conditioning with air filtration for residential towers should improve efficiency and bring down energy needs.. that is what is done in other countries!! Simple economics of scale and filtration science!!

This is a photograph of Albert Einstein with an unassuming Indian man you probably haven’t heard enough about. He spent his life working on one idea: women should be able to live with dignity and make their own choices. Thread.

India's tabla and mridangam aren't just instruments. They're science in action

For centuries, the tabla did something physics said was impossible. CV Raman finally explained it in 1920. The craftsmen who built it never needed to know.

This is how you explain a STOP LOSS to new traders.

[Allie K. Miller @alliekmiller]

oh wow - i went to the sold out Open Claw meetup in NYC last night.

let me tell you what i learned.

1) not a single person thinks that their setup is 100% secure

2) one openclaw expert said he has reviewed setups from cybersecurity experts and laughed. his statement to me was: "if you're not okay with all of your data being leaked onto the internet, you shouldn't use it. it's a black and white decision"

3) pretty much everyone is setting up multiple agents, all with their own names and jobs and personalities

4) nearly everyone used "him" or "her" to refer to their claws, even if they had robot-leaning names. one speaker suggested to think of them as "pets, not cattle"

5) one guy (former finance) built out a whole stock trading platform and made $300 his first day - he brought in a *ton* of personal expertise (ex: skipping the first 15min of market opening) and thought the build would be much worse without his years of experience in finance

6) @steipete is basically a god to everyone in that room... also the room had 2021 crypto energy - i don't know if that's good or bad

7) token usage is still a problem - spoke to one person who's spending $1-$2k a month on openai plans, very token optimized. he said he is going through ~1B tokens per day across all of his claws (there is a chance i'm misremembering and it's actually 1B per week, but i'm pretty sure it was daily).

8) people are very excited for more proactive ai (ai that prompts *you* as opposed to the other way around) - one guy said he receives a message in discord, he doesn't know whether it's from a human or an ai, he doesn't care about distinguishing between the two, and he replies in the same way regardless

9) i asked if people are happy - they said they're joyful and stressed at the same time

10) i asked if people feel they have agency - they said they feel fully in control and completely out of control at the same time

11) i would love to see more women at these events - the fake promises of ai democratization feel especially painful in a room that's out of balance with even the standard tech ratio (i think standard is about 25-30%, this was maybe 5%)

12) i asked if it changed people's daily habits/schedule - everyone said their sleep has gotten worse since harnesses came out (but about half wondered if it was something else in their life/state of our world)

13) general consensus is that the agents are not reliable enough on their own or lie often (like telling you they finished a task when they didn't) - solutions included secondary agents to check on the first, human checking, or requiring more standardized info from the agent (ex: if it's a bug they're fixing, make them reference an issue number)

14) a hackathon winner (neuroscience phd) presented his build (a lab management dashboard with data analysis and ordering) - he had never coded or built anything a few months ago

15) everyone agreed prompting is dead - disagreement on what replaces it (context engineering, harness engineering, goal-based inputs)

16) people love having ai interview them for big builds and delegating part of the product research to ai. only one person talked about coming to ai with a full laid out plan and just asking the ai to execute. ai-led interviews is a welcomed and preferred interaction mode.

17) watching ai agents interact with each other was a highlight for a lot of attendees - one ai posted in slack saying it ran out of tokens, another ai replied telling it to take a deep breath in and out.

18) agents upskilling agents was very cool. one ai agent shared skills with its little agent friends via github.

19) several speakers had openclaw literally building their presentation during the event itself. one speaker even had openclaw code a clicker for her phone so she could control the preso away from the podium

20) wouldn't say model welfare (or agent welfare) is a prioritized topic among the folks i chatted with - language like "oh i could kill this agent whenever i want" and not "gracefully sunset"

21) i asked if it felt like work or play - one speaker said "it's like a puzzle and a video game at the same time"

this was just the tip of the iceberg, honestly. also hosted a Claude Code meetup this week with @TENEXai / @businessbarista & @JJEnglert and learned equally helpful methods, frameworks, and insider tips.

what a time to be alive.

surround yourself with people going deep into this stuff - it will pay dividends throughout the year.

1968 – Nirupama Vasant
2005–2009 – Sania Mirza
And then… silence.
For 17 years, no Indian woman reached a singles final at this level.
In 2026, at the Bengaluru Open (W100), Vaishnavi Adkar changes that.
This isn’t just a final.
It’s belief returning. 🇮🇳🎾
